1. Apart from her mother's celebrity status, what qualifies Bristol to get paid $15,000 to $30,000 per appearance to speak on abstinence?

2. If abstinence is indeed a cause close to her heart, wouldn't she be willing to do it in exchange for travel expenses and perhaps some nominal fee? I mean, even at $1,000 a pop, she would be making a darn fine living for a high school dropout.

Gosh, I wonder if her publicist will have her do signing parties with George Duhbya Bush. The two of them might do better if they get together.

Posted - 02/16/2011 : 2:55:52 PM What makes her qualified to get paid $30,000 to speak is that people will come to hear her. Whether they come for the information or her notoriety - no one would pa her fee if she was not attracting the audience.

Posted - 02/11/2011 : 4:29:39 PM Shaggy, Flicka, Kristina, everybody, yes, Y'all come, and bring the favorite knitting and maybe a carrot or a potato for the stew. I have enough wine. hehe That is, if the Cabana boys don't come out of the woodwork with their sequin guns, thongs, and thirst for drink and wild partays.

Posted - 02/11/2011 : 08:36:17 AM I've never seen the Cabanna boys so I'm kinda hoping they DO show up.

Posted - 02/11/2011 : 06:00:08 AM May I come and bring Flicka? We had such a good time at our last get together. Lella I hope the Cabanna boys won't show up though. Don't tell Flicka I told you this, but I saw her take off her sun glasses for a minute of two when they were dancing in their thongs.

Posted - 02/10/2011 : 11:38:04 PM Yes, please, do come! I will make scones with cranberries and pecans in them for early tea.

Later we can make stew, knit in front of the fire if it's cold out, and stew ourselves drink the rest of the wine with some cheese and crackers.

Posted - 02/09/2011 : 7:51:44 PM May I join you, Lella? I can be there early to help with the stewing!

And BIG "thank yous" to all of you who left stew making hints! I'm going to try again, using all your hints! And, liberal amounts of wine will be used. A glass for the cook, one for the recipe, two for the cooks, one for the stew. Is pie eyed the same as Stewed? hehe.
